The seaside resort recorded a temperature of 23.6C on Saturday – just 0.1C behind Belfast Airport, while Valley on Anglesey was the sunniest place in the UK on Saturday with 14.2 hours recorded.

But enjoy it while it last as forecasters are predicting blustery showers for the end of next week.

The warm and settled weather is expected to retreat, to be replaced by cloudier conditions and rain – making it a few degrees cooler.

Temperatures are set to drop throughout the week with forecasters predicting it’ll be between 16-19C in North Wales from Monday and will become progressively cooler as the week goes.

And there’s even more bad news as experts at The Weather Channel believe that the changeable conditions could now last until the end of the month, although there could the occasional brief warm and dry spell in the south.

A spokesman for The Weather Channel said cooler, cloudy conditions would edge across the UK during Monday with temperatures falling and more changeable conditions as the week progressed.
